Are there any household gadgets you found unexpectedly useful after you'd gotten them?

I was thinking about how I missed having an indoor thermometer that measures humidity. It's such a small specific thing, one I'd never think of getting unless pushed to it (which I was by one particularly dry winter). But I like having one now.

What are your small, "random" or "junk drawer" type of gadgets that you actually use or like having around?

I dunno. No matter how "heat tolerant" plastic claims to be repeated exposure to high heat seems like it'd increase the chance you'd be dosing all your foods with micro plastics and other plastic related chemicals.

Like I'd never put anything made of plastic that touches food in the microwave myself, heat resistant or not :#
